Would you like 4 Sims a week?
With the world being like it is right now, I suggested to the GB that perhaps we do 4 sims a week for the 2042 season.
This would accomplish two things:
1) Give us more of a distraction during these tough times
2) Gets us to OOTP21 quicker
What say you? This is by no means an official poll, just want to get the pulse of the league.

God, yes. If you think you can handle the load, that would be wonderful. Anything not to dwell on the craziness ...

It will obviously reduce writing time, but I'm good for it if others are.

Yeah, if it doesn't inconvenience you.

Re: Would you like 4 Sims a week?
I'm a no on this but wouldn't bitch if guys want it. My only request would be that we not do two sims over the weekend. My work schedule makes it borderline impossible for me to export for both a Saturday and Sunday sim.

Re: Would you like 4 Sims a week?
I'm in. There is only so much "working from home" that I can do and I can get more BBA done from home since I can get into stats+ and html. Oh yeah, and the game.

Re: Would you like 4 Sims a week?
Quickest yes ever. I'd love a temporary move to four sims a week for all the reasons outlined. Only if it's temporary and only if you're confident you can handle the extra workload. While I know I could make it work, I think three sims work better for most, more consistently. Not to mention the writing burden that people who write a lot would need to endure. As I am trying to ramp up my own writing, I will also start to encounter these issues soon too.
With all that said, resounding yes from me as a temporary measure.

Re: Would you like 4 Sims a week?
Personally no, I joined the Brewster as it was a writing league and the sim schedule wasn't hectic enough to detract from writing articles. I'd even worked out a schedule on articles and such but would never be able to keep that schedule up with 4 Sims, I'd have to rethink my position to be honest as I've never looked or been in a league with more than 3 Sims.

Re: Would you like 4 Sims a week?
Hard no. Nothing has changed for me. Still working normal hours (impossible to work from home) and until government forces us to close, we won't be. We are a machine shop making plastic injection molds. We have customers all over the US and they are more worried about us hitting delivery dates then us getting the Virus.

Re: Would you like 4 Sims a week?
My only thought with going to 4/week is we might need to look at easing writing or export requirements. I can speak for myself that I would miss more exports given the timing of where I am in the world and when sims come out.

Re: Would you like 4 Sims a week?
I also don't think 21 should factor into this at all, there are other ways to get there.

Re: Would you like 4 Sims a week?
I changed to no for some of the reasons above and until we get clarification on if there are any writing requirement changes.

Seems like there’s enough no to keep as planned

Re: Would you like 4 Sims a week?
Yeah. Given the amount of "no" I'd suggest we just stay the course.
